Please Help: VS 2005 applications are not opening


Any help is appreciated.
We have VS Studio 2003,2005,2008 and 2010 installed on our Citrix Servrs.
Now we are trying to open VS 2005 applications but for all the applications(C# or VB) we are getting the same error:
"project type is not supported for this installation" as shown in the screen shot below:
 
We have tried following solutions:
 
  1. tried to open VS 2005 app. in VS 2008
  2. executed these commands:
             regsvr32.exe "%vs80comntools%\..\IDE\projectaggregator.dll"
             devenv /setup
            devenv /resetskippkgs
    3.     installed these patches:
                
            Run VS80-KB915364-X86-ENU.exe
            Run WebApplicationProjectSetup.msi
 4.      Workaround: temporary deleted "ProjectTypeGuids"
 
Please let us know if there is any setting which we are missing or any configuration which needs to be done.
 
SOLUTION 1:

I have got this error before and it affected only for Web Apps. (WebApplications and not Websites). WbApps have .csproj but websites dont.

Assuming that this is the case for you as well, Please install VS 2005 SP1 in your CITRIX Server. It should get resolved automatically.
